30 Knitting Projects for 1 Ball of Yarn

I have been knitting and crocheting for over 30 years, and in that time I have accumulated hundreds of single balls of yarn. At first they were leftovers from larger knitting projects; the afghans and sweaters I knitted seemed always seemed to use less wool or yarn than the instructions called for. I just can’t bring myself to throw out leftover yarn or wool, and am always looking for ways to repurpose yarn into unique crafts and projects. As my collection of single skeins and balls of yarn grew, I began to look for creative ways to use up my wool ends and leftover yarn bits. Here is a list of 30 ways to use up your leftover yarn for knitting projects. Check back often as I will be adding links to patterns for these projects, and adding to the list as well!
